  1. Re:Grassroute! on Name For a Community-Owned Fiber Network? · · Score: 1

    This is by far the best suggestion in this entire discussion. And it was first! Very impressive, penguin king, very impressive...

  2. Re:As Dean Martin used to say... on Some Moray Eels Have Two Sets of Jaws · · Score: 1

    When you stare down it's maw, And you see an extra jaw, That's a moray.

  3. What about afterwards? on Space Ring Could Combat Global Warming · · Score: 1

    With the light scattering particle technique, what do we do after balance is restored? How do we get rid of the particles? Wouldn't they then cause the earth to enter another ice age?

  4. Re:Origins of "whopping" term. on Largest Privately Owned Supercomputer · · Score: 1

    If it makes a noise like a 100,000 people all saying "whop" at once, I don't want anything to do with it.

  5. Surprise, Surprise... on 3 New Windows Security Problems Found · · Score: 3, Funny

    Apparently there are issues, even for a Windows XP system patched with Service Pack Two.

    *Gasp* Oh my god! Not SERVICE PACK 2, the horror ...

  6. What Happens When... on CCC Mods Rent-a-Bike To Allow Free Rides · · Score: 3, Interesting

    What happens when you lock your bike to something that doesn't belong to you and someone (i.e. store owner) gets pissed?

  7. Tech-Oriented Faculty on Setting up a High-Tech Language School? · · Score: 1

    In order for this kind of venture to pull through, I'd suggest making sure that any faculty you hire in the future have lots of experience with the kind of technology required to keep the whole operation running. Specifically in the type of telecommunications you're talking about, because I'm sure that teaching classes via webcam would be much different than teaching in a traditional classroom. Too many things like this fail miserably due to teachers and staff that havn't the slightest clue how to use the tech given to them to it's full potential.

  8. The Right Combination? on PC Photo Printers Challenge Pros · · Score: 3, Interesting

    It says that you can make better and cheaper photos at home, if you choose the right combination of printer, ink, and paper. Now I was wondering if the "right combonation" is just a one time set up, or would you have to change your setup depending on what kind of photography you happen to be doing. Should indoor, low-light prints be made with different paper or even a different cartridge, and bright outdoor prints with yet another? Also, how many prints would you have to need developed say, every month, in order for the lower cost per print to cancel out to investment in a printer and the inevitable replacement of ink cartriges?

  9. Re:Sony = crap on Sony PSP Defects Reported · · Score: 2, Funny

    Mod me down, but for their consumer grade stuff, it's true.

    Oh come off it, it's not like you're going to be some kind of martyr for speaking your mind.

  10. I Want The More Efficient Ones... on Is the Future of Silicon Valley Solar? · · Score: 1

    Intel branded solar panels, anyone?

    I would personally prefer AMD branded solar panels, you insensitive clod!
